Popis: In this contribution, a microprocessor based sun finder and solar tracking system is discussed. The system was designed and implemented on an 8080-based microprocessor. The paper gives the general hardware and software along with the circuitry. The system is able to locate the sun even during periods of very poor visibility. ‘Hunting’, which is usual in such schemes, has been eliminated by means of appropriate design of the motor circuit.
